Note: The Jets lost a game they could ill afford to lose last night as they hosted the Avalanche who took it 3-2<\/a> which wrapped up a two-game set in Winnipeg. They are scheduled to practice today before they fly off to Colorado to conclude this home and home with the Avs which kicks off four games on the road. Given Morgan Barron was placed into concussion protocol after his tilt with Josh Manson might there be a recall today (emergency or otherwise) as the Jets only have 12 healthy forwards? Stay tuned to find out.<\/p>\n

Note II: Speaking of the Moose they will be in action this evening in Belleville as they look to end their three-game slide. Will college free agent signee<\/a>\u00a0Lucas Wahlin play his first game as a pro? Uncertain but we do know that puck drop is at 6 PM CT. Stay tuned for the post-game recap.<\/p>\n

Note III: The OHL playoffs began last night. It was a t<\/a>rio of primary assists for Jets prospect Kevin He (2024 4th) who helped his Flint club roll to a big 8-1 win in game 1 of their first round series in the OHL playoffs. Over in Peterborough, Jets prospect Kieron Walton (2024 6th) had a couple of shots<\/a> but his Petes fell 1-0 in game 1 of their series with North Bay.<\/p>\n

Winnipeg Free Press:\u00a0Vilardi on course for career season<\/a>. (Paywall). He is just a point back of matching his career high and last night represented the most games he\u2019s played (72) in one season. While he may try to represent it\u2019s business as usual the reality is he is setting new highs for himself.<\/p>\n
